25,000 for my sons to go to one school. A school, snow school, that theyve never set foot in for any reason at all. If they were vouchered theyd only be paid once. If it was a scholarship, wed only be paid once. The reason why were in the situation that were in is were trying to keep the other school open so that the grown people can keep their jobs.
